A CHEAP, RELIABLE, STEADY
Stover Engines
are made in both vertical and horizontal styles
and range from 2- to 40-horse power. The
Stover has been demonstrated as the most sim
ple engine on the market. The gasoline pump
the ignitor and the exhaust are all operated on
one rod. ,The Stover engine is easy to start
and furnishes a steady power.
No man needs to be a machinist to understand - and operate
this engine. AU its working parts, with the exception of the
piston and pi9ton-rod, are on the outside of the cylinder and in
plain view. The STOVER often develops more than its rated
power. Less troublesome to operate than a steam engine and
cheaper than electricity. . The Stover is certainly an ideal en
gine for the small shop and farm where the power must be ready
at any time.
The Stover furnishes an' excellent power for pumping water.
The outfit shown below will furnish enough water for any Sub
urban or country home, and it is very economical in cost. Small
v cities, contemplating the Installation of a water outfit, will do
well to investigate our water systems. Send for Stover Engine

Poultry Notes.
Ashes should not be need in tne
runs of yellow-legged fowls whioh are
destined for exhibition purposes, as
they tend to bleach the shanks.
The best way to preserve yellow
shanks is by giving tlw chicks a good
run ov r freph grass. Somo breeders
place a pan of cold water where the
chicks most step in it in entering or
leaving the honse. Others bathe the
legs at nipht with a sponge wrnng out
of tepid water in which is a teaspoon
fnl of glycerine to the pint. Kero
sene is also nsed in the smallest quan
tities, just enough to brighten the
shanjis and leave no trace. The kero
sene is also good as a rupellant of in
sects. Crooked toes are sometimes caused
by a lack of bedding for the voong
chicks.
